🌟 Hi families! I’m Makayla — a licensed social worker and proud Children’s Hospital team member! 🌟 Caring for kids has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. As the oldest child in my family, looking after little ones came naturally, and it quickly became something I genuinely love. Kids bring so much joy, curiosity, and unpredictability — every few minutes is a new adventure, and I adore that. They learn from you, you learn from them, and together you grow. 👶 My Experience I’ve worked with children in a wide variety of settings, including: • Camps • Homes • Churches • Schools I’ve cared for kids of all ages and have served as both an emergency sitter and a labor‑on‑call sitter. Some of my favorite roles include: • Camp counselor for 5th graders • Kidz Kingdom teacher for babies–5-year-olds • After‑school teacher’s Read more aide for kindergarten & 1st grade • Babysitter for many wonderful families • Middle school girls’ soccer coach (a role I absolutely adore!) 🌈 What I Love to Do With Kids Exploring is my favorite way to connect — whether that’s trying new foods, visiting museums, heading to the zoo, checking out local parks, or spending the day at COSI. Kids are naturally curious, and exploring together builds trust, confidence, and joy. 👨👩👧👦 Additional Experience • Comfortable caring for multiples (I’ve managed up to 6 kids at once!) • Experienced with infants • Overnight care available If you’re looking for someone dependable, energetic, and passionate about helping kids learn and grow, I’d love to connect!
